First we define the variables:

m = multiple choice questions

s = short answer questions

Next we need to satisfy 2 conditions:

1) There are a total of 40 questions. We can represent this mathematically using the variables I defined:

m+s=40

2) The multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points and the short-answer are worth 4 points but they need to total 100 points. This can also be represented mathematically:

2m+4s=100

By satisfying the conditions provided we were able to create the 2 equations!

m+s=40

2m+4s=100

Consider that 620(1.082)x models the average annual health care costs per person, in dollars, as a function of the number of yea
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

I guess that you want to calculate the difference between the annual healt care costs in 1950 and today.

The equation is:

C(x) = $620*(1.082)^x

in 1950, we have x = 0 (because is the initial year)

then the cost is:

C(0) = $620*1 = $620.

Now, today, in 2020, we have:

x = 2020 - 1950 = 70

then we have:

C(70) = $620*(1.082)^70 = $154,276.7

So, according to this equation, te difference is:

$154,276.7 -  $620 = $153,656.6

Please help!!! I'm super confused with this one, show work so that I can figure out what I did wrong.

Answer: The length of CU is 117 units.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: ΔWCD≈ΔWUV

We know that if two triangles are similar, then their corresponding sides are proportional.

∴ \frac{WU}{WC}=\frac{WV}{WD}

\frac{36x-1}{26}=\frac{110}{20}\\\Rightarrow\ 36x-1=\frac{11}{2}\times26\\\Rightarrow36x-1=143\\\Rightarrow\ 36x=143+1\\\Rightarrow\ 36x=144\\\Rightarrow\ x=4

∴ WU=36(4)-1=143

Also , WU=WC+CU

⇒CU=WU-WC

⇒CU=143-26=117 units

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (3,3) and has a slope of 0
Flauer [41]

Answer:

y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Plugging in 0 for the slope, y=b. Since y=3 in the point (3,3), 3=b. Therefore, the line is y=3.
